NEW flavoured Protector Plus condoms with a sleeker and more stylish packaging have been introduced on the market, replacing the old Protector Plus condoms.
BY OUR CORRESPONDENT
The old condoms, whose packaging featured a happy couple, had become out of date and sometimes unpopular because of their unappealing latex smell.
The United States Agency for International Development’s (USAID’s) and the Population Services International worked together to redesign the new packaging.
“We wanted to make condoms more trendy, more contemporary,” said Kumbirai Chatora, director of Social Marketing at PSI.
The new packaging is also slender, making it more discreet. USAID, which distributes condoms through PSI hopes that making condoms more fashionable would encourage people to use them more often.
Along with the new packaging of the original condoms, the condoms now come in three new flavours: strawberry, banana, and vanilla, thereby offering users a fresh alternative. So far, condoms with the strawberry scent (red) enjoy the highest sales.
The marketing campaign is geared towards men since they are the dominant purchasers.
Chatora added: “What we want is for the man to feel proud.” The slogan for the new condoms is “I am the new man in town.”
USAID supported distribution of the new condoms in April, and sales have increased by about 10 percent since then. Additional outlets have also started purchasing the new Protector Plus condoms.
“In the past, it was only the private sector (commercial brand) condoms that had colours and scents,” Chatora explained. “The new condoms add value to the brand as a whole.”

I just got paid $7500 working off my computer this month. And if you think that’s cool, my divorced friend has twin toddlers and made over $8k her first month. It feels so good making so much money when other people have to work for so much less. This is what I do

I think you want condoms to be used more frequently not more often…shall we say, “once is enough”
From a marketing viewpoint the branding strategy will probably fight competition from durex brand but unfortunately does not help in shifting the demand curve,I.e you will only see movement along demand curve rather than shift. As for shift, think outside the condom . Why do we engage in coitus and how can condoms help with the activity.
